Curses at cops, gets arrested

Jersey City police responding to a minor incident on Thursday arrested the victim's husband after he flew into a rage and referred to the shooting of five police officers this summer, telling cops it could happen again, officials said yesterday.

"Y'all seen what happened to them cops down on the hill, it could happen again," Darryl McFarland, 31, of Kennedy Boulevard at Warner Avenue, screamed before his arrest on the charges of aggravated assault on a police officer, harassment, resisting arrest, disorderly conduct and obstructing, reports said.

"Check my record. Y'all will see who I am. I slammed one of y'all before. I'll slam y'all again," reports quote McFarland as saying during a tirade around 7 p.m. at his wife's home on Hutton Street.

Officers responded to the home after someone damaged her door.

When McFarland arrived he began shouting and cursing and told the officers he would handle the matter, reports said. Officers tried to calm him but he slammed the door and left, reports said.

McFarland returned and began swinging his arms aggressively and cursing at the officers, reports said. Finally, McFarland thrust his chest into the chest of an officer and he was arrested after a struggle, reports said.

"I don't care if you arrest me, I ain't going to court," McFarland is quoted as saying.
He was sent to the Hudson County jail in Kearny, reports said.
